Tokyo, Japan - A new study has shown that for bystander cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR), the use of chest compressions alone without mouth-to-mouth ventilation is the preferable method for ...
A recent study finds that the chances of surviving a cardiac arrest outside a hospital setting are twice as high if bystanders perform chest-compression-only resuscitation instead of traditional ...
WE became aware of the dangers of external cardiac compression in infants and children when 2 cases of hepatic rupture came to our attention. 1 A check through pathological files revealed that about 7 ...
Two large-scale studies report that the chances of surviving cardiac arrest are no better -- and may be worse -- when bystanders perform mouth-to-mouth breathing than if they press on the chest ...
